00:00:16,994 --> 00:00:19,194
Speaker 1: a new pink with seriously disturbed.

3
00:00:18,914 --> 00:00:21,314
Speaker 2: Laurels for spraying groundbreaking?

4
00:00:21,514 --> 00:00:23,834
Speaker 1: Oh my god, you have to do it. You live

5
00:00:23,954 --> 00:00:24,634
Speaker 1: for fashion.

6
00:00:26,314 --> 00:00:28,914

8
00:00:32,074 --> 00:00:33,233
Speaker 3: is Tamara Holland.

9

Speaker 4: And I'm listen to Picket and each week we talk

10
00:00:35,394 --> 00:00:38,274
Speaker 4: all things fashion, and this week there's really only one

11
00:00:38,314 --> 00:00:40,473
Speaker 4: thing that we could be talking about, and that is

12
00:00:40,473 --> 00:00:42,634
Speaker 4: the boxing day's sales mem.

13
00:00:42,754 --> 00:00:46,593
Speaker 3: Rh yay, a chance to spend lots of money on

14
00:00:46,674 --> 00:00:50,034
Speaker 3: clothes and things we potentially don't need. So in that vein,

15
00:00:50,153 --> 00:00:52,114
Speaker 3: we're going to be giving you all our tips and

16
00:00:52,153 --> 00:00:55,554
Speaker 3: tricks to help navigate the sales confidently, make good purchases,

17
00:00:55,674 --> 00:00:57,874
Speaker 3: make good spending decisions, and a bit.

18
00:00:57,794 --> 00:01:00,234
Speaker 4: Of a strategy and a plan of attack so you

19
00:01:00,273 --> 00:01:02,313
Speaker 4: guys can go in and feel confident about what you're

20
00:01:02,354 --> 00:01:03,994
Speaker 4: going to get and what to get as well.

21
00:01:04,034 --> 00:01:05,994
Speaker 3: Absolutely, all right, we've got a lot to cover, so

22
00:01:06,074 --> 00:01:06,754
Speaker 3: let's get into it.

23
00:01:07,314 --> 00:01:09,674
Speaker 4: Well, did you know, Tam, just when I was researching

24
00:01:09,714 --> 00:01:12,954
Speaker 4: this episode last year, Australia spent an estimate of one

25
00:01:13,034 --> 00:01:15,874
Speaker 4: point three billion dollars on the Boxing.

26
00:01:15,554 --> 00:01:18,714
Speaker 1: Day day alone, one point three billion.

27
00:01:18,874 --> 00:01:21,114
Speaker 3: I feel like these statistics are always lost on me

28
00:01:21,194 --> 00:01:23,674
Speaker 3: because I'm like, I could feel like it costs one

29
00:01:23,674 --> 00:01:25,794
Speaker 3: point three billion dollars to make a house now, so

30
00:01:25,834 --> 00:01:27,834
Speaker 3: I like, but that, yes, that does seem like a

31
00:01:27,834 --> 00:01:31,114
Speaker 3: lot of money. And yeah, but it doesn't surprise me

32
00:01:31,154 --> 00:01:34,314
Speaker 3: because they get bigger and bigger every year, so we're just.

33
00:01:34,314 --> 00:01:37,714
Speaker 4: Really willing to spend. And then it's not just Boxing

34
00:01:37,794 --> 00:01:40,194
Speaker 4: day sales. We know that they do usually extend them

35
00:01:40,234 --> 00:01:42,754
Speaker 4: as well, So for the additional six days after that,

36
00:01:42,794 --> 00:01:44,634
Speaker 4: it was three point seven billion dollars. But it's wild,

37
00:01:44,714 --> 00:01:47,874
Speaker 4: so it's a massive day for consumption, yes, for everyone.

38
00:01:48,554 --> 00:01:50,594
Speaker 4: I don't know if you remember this, Tam, but when

39
00:01:50,674 --> 00:01:52,954
Speaker 4: I was younger, I just remember it was like the

40
00:01:53,034 --> 00:01:54,834
Speaker 4: three four am start at.

41
00:01:54,714 --> 00:01:56,434
Speaker 1: Whether it be like your local Westfield.

42
00:01:56,474 --> 00:01:59,834
Speaker 4: For me, it was horns for your Chatsworth and lining

43
00:01:59,914 --> 00:02:01,154
Speaker 4: up to get into the shops.

44
00:02:01,234 --> 00:02:03,034
Speaker 1: Yeah on Boxing Day? Did you ever do this?

45
00:02:03,274 --> 00:02:03,434
Speaker 2: Oh?

46
00:02:03,514 --> 00:02:06,034
Speaker 3: No, I didn't do that myself. I'm not that hardcore.

47
00:02:06,074 --> 00:02:09,874
Speaker 3: But I do remember the news reports every year showing

48
00:02:09,954 --> 00:02:12,394
Speaker 3: like all the lines around like Pitt Street mall and

49
00:02:12,434 --> 00:02:15,714
Speaker 3: people camping overnight to get in first to David Jones

50
00:02:15,714 --> 00:02:17,714
Speaker 3: and stuff. So it's very much like a time of

51
00:02:17,834 --> 00:02:20,674
Speaker 3: year and it's embedded in my consciousness like boxing now,

52
00:02:20,754 --> 00:02:21,554
Speaker 3: like that's the day.

53
00:02:21,794 --> 00:02:24,073
Speaker 4: And I guess this was a time before online shopping

54
00:02:24,114 --> 00:02:26,394
Speaker 4: as well, where it really was, because I remember this

55
00:02:26,474 --> 00:02:30,594
Speaker 4: from school days, so what I don't know fifteen years ago, solos,

56
00:02:32,634 --> 00:02:34,554
Speaker 4: but yeah, I never was there at three am, but

57
00:02:34,594 --> 00:02:35,474
Speaker 4: I remember getting.

58
00:02:35,274 --> 00:02:36,234
Speaker 1: There at like six am.

59
00:02:36,634 --> 00:02:39,234
Speaker 3: Right, you're an early startup thing to do. Did you

60
00:02:39,274 --> 00:02:40,114
Speaker 3: go with your family?

61
00:02:40,754 --> 00:02:43,914
Speaker 4: Well, I'm yeah, with the girls, like in the family

62
00:02:44,034 --> 00:02:45,874
Speaker 4: and one of five, but they'd watched the Boxing Day

63
00:02:45,874 --> 00:02:47,474
Speaker 4: test match and the girls will go shopping.

64
00:02:47,594 --> 00:02:49,913
Speaker 3: I love that. I came from a big cricket family too,

65
00:02:49,954 --> 00:02:51,474
Speaker 3: so the cricket was always on and I think I

66
00:02:51,514 --> 00:02:53,554
Speaker 3: wished I was at the shop, but I was sadly,

67
00:02:53,834 --> 00:02:56,994
Speaker 3: you know, watching people bowling bad on the TV. Anyway,

68
00:02:57,314 --> 00:03:00,034
Speaker 3: So to give us a bit of a plan of attack, yeah,

69
00:03:00,114 --> 00:03:02,554
Speaker 3: or maybe the frequently asked questions around Boxing Day, we

70
00:03:02,594 --> 00:03:04,834
Speaker 3: have asked the Mom and mea office to share their

71
00:03:04,874 --> 00:03:08,674
Speaker 3: most pressing questions for how to best navigate and tack

72
00:03:08,754 --> 00:03:09,554
Speaker 3: the sales this year.

73
00:03:09,874 --> 00:03:12,794
Speaker 4: That's right, So we've got all our questions curated together,

74
00:03:12,994 --> 00:03:14,874
Speaker 4: and I'm going to ask you the first one here, Tam,

75
00:03:15,074 --> 00:03:18,274
Speaker 4: what items are best to buy in the boxing day cells?

76
00:03:18,674 --> 00:03:20,634
Speaker 4: And where do you get the most I guess bang

77
00:03:20,674 --> 00:03:22,434
Speaker 4: for your buck within the boxing day cells.

78
00:03:22,914 --> 00:03:25,874
Speaker 3: That's a big question because we're talking very broadly here.

79
00:03:25,954 --> 00:03:27,994
Speaker 3: I mean, the Boxing day sales cover a lot of

80
00:03:27,994 --> 00:03:30,874
Speaker 3: different categories. But for me, if we're just talking about fashion,

81
00:03:31,354 --> 00:03:33,874
Speaker 3: as we do on this pod, my number one is

82
00:03:34,274 --> 00:03:36,594
Speaker 3: I'm just going to say, because this is what I do,

83
00:03:37,274 --> 00:03:41,714
Speaker 3: I look for designer items that are discounted that I

84
00:03:41,994 --> 00:03:46,114
Speaker 3: maybe wouldn't usually buy full price. Most of my higher

85
00:03:46,234 --> 00:03:50,194
Speaker 3: end or mid tier brand pieces I've bought in the

86
00:03:50,194 --> 00:03:53,554
Speaker 3: boxing day sales or end of season sales. This goes

87
00:03:53,554 --> 00:03:57,714
Speaker 3: for things like clothes and accessories. But then if you're

88
00:03:57,954 --> 00:04:02,834
Speaker 3: talking about, you know, just making smart purchasing decisions, I

89
00:04:02,874 --> 00:04:06,754
Speaker 3: would say, just like wardrobe staples that will work year round,

90
00:04:07,554 --> 00:04:11,834
Speaker 3: taking advantage of, you know, the massive general discounts or

91
00:04:11,874 --> 00:04:15,994
Speaker 3: percentages off that you can get across essential pieces. So

92
00:04:16,034 --> 00:04:18,034
Speaker 3: for example, it might be that black blazer that you've

93
00:04:18,034 --> 00:04:19,434
Speaker 3: had your eye on and it's a little bit of

94
00:04:19,474 --> 00:04:22,634
Speaker 3: a higher price point, but now it's half off. You know,

95
00:04:22,873 --> 00:04:25,914
Speaker 3: sneakers that have sat in your cart for months for

96
00:04:25,993 --> 00:04:27,753
Speaker 3: me like this is the time to strike.

97
00:04:27,953 --> 00:04:28,794
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I love that.

98
00:04:28,834 --> 00:04:31,633
Speaker 4: And also thinking about your wardrobe, and I guess the

99
00:04:31,714 --> 00:04:34,833
Speaker 4: different verticals within your wardrobe, like what you wear to

100
00:04:34,873 --> 00:04:37,073
Speaker 4: work and then if you've got any holidays coming up,

101
00:04:37,073 --> 00:04:39,313
Speaker 4: what you wear to the gym, because things like sneakers,

102
00:04:39,354 --> 00:04:41,674
Speaker 4: like actually buying some new Nikes or something, those things

103
00:04:41,674 --> 00:04:46,353
Speaker 4: can get expensive. True every touch point in your life

104
00:04:46,553 --> 00:04:48,433
Speaker 4: and what you actually need to get. I love what

105
00:04:48,433 --> 00:04:51,633
Speaker 4: you said about the higher price or the higher value

106
00:04:51,714 --> 00:04:54,394
Speaker 4: items because you're going to get that bigger percentage off.

107
00:04:54,674 --> 00:04:57,073
Speaker 1: But those day to day things like I find I'll

108
00:04:57,113 --> 00:04:58,914
Speaker 1: use the boxing day sales to get.

109
00:04:58,674 --> 00:05:01,794
Speaker 4: All my underwear, all my lingerie, my socks, and just

110
00:05:01,873 --> 00:05:03,513
Speaker 4: that's sort of my stock for the year.

111
00:05:03,674 --> 00:05:05,993
Speaker 3: That's so smart, But I don't do that. I'm nowhere

112
00:05:06,034 --> 00:05:08,794
Speaker 3: nearest strategic you, Like, even when we were planning out

113
00:05:08,794 --> 00:05:11,714
Speaker 3: of this conversation we were talking about like just a

114
00:05:11,714 --> 00:05:13,914
Speaker 3: little how the sausage is made here, but like talking

115
00:05:13,953 --> 00:05:16,074
Speaker 3: about what are your strategies and what do you doing?

116
00:05:16,113 --> 00:05:18,113
Speaker 3: I was like, Lucin is going to have so many good,

117
00:05:18,154 --> 00:05:20,193
Speaker 3: Like I feel like you're quite type ady going with

118
00:05:20,193 --> 00:05:22,753
Speaker 3: a plan, whereas I'm just like, oh, nice dress. Like

119
00:05:23,513 --> 00:05:25,714
Speaker 3: I'd be lying if I said I was that planned

120
00:05:25,993 --> 00:05:27,953
Speaker 3: and being that thorough. Though I think that's a really

121
00:05:27,993 --> 00:05:29,914
Speaker 3: like for someone like me, even if I were listening

122
00:05:29,914 --> 00:05:31,314
Speaker 3: to this, like who goes in with a bit of

123
00:05:31,313 --> 00:05:33,954
Speaker 3: a chaotic mindset. I think it's good to have some

124
00:05:34,073 --> 00:05:37,313
Speaker 3: boundaries and maybe some rules or you know, themes around

125
00:05:37,313 --> 00:05:40,473
Speaker 3: what you're trying to do. So if it's dressing specific

126
00:05:40,553 --> 00:05:42,993
Speaker 3: gaps in your wardrobe, or it's okay, let's restock the

127
00:05:43,073 --> 00:05:46,073
Speaker 3: under drawer, just like being being more strategic.

128
00:05:45,553 --> 00:05:48,474
Speaker 4: And writing a list as well, so like you're Monday

129
00:05:48,474 --> 00:05:51,474
Speaker 4: to Friday work where weekend where like like I said,

130
00:05:51,474 --> 00:05:53,674
Speaker 4: the gym or pilates and then having that plan but

131
00:05:53,714 --> 00:05:54,674
Speaker 4: writing it down as.

132
00:05:54,513 --> 00:05:57,313
Speaker 3: Well, Yes in the notes app or a little retro

133
00:05:57,393 --> 00:06:02,634
Speaker 3: shopping list, yes, love that. Anything else we've missed here, I.

134
00:06:02,594 --> 00:06:04,834
Speaker 4: Think going I know we're a fashion podcast, but going

135
00:06:04,873 --> 00:06:07,113
Speaker 4: a little bit off piece. It is a really good

136
00:06:07,234 --> 00:06:09,473
Speaker 4: time to look for those big ticket items like the

137
00:06:09,553 --> 00:06:12,394
Speaker 4: tech appliances, if you need a new fridge, if you

138
00:06:12,433 --> 00:06:15,633
Speaker 4: need a new TV, even like crockery, like La cruise.

139
00:06:15,834 --> 00:06:19,154
Speaker 1: I love that really beautiful? Is it iron cast?

140
00:06:19,354 --> 00:06:22,473
Speaker 3: Yes? They are like pans and pots lovely.

141
00:06:22,674 --> 00:06:25,234
Speaker 4: It's so expensive things like that, you can really get

142
00:06:25,234 --> 00:06:27,633
Speaker 4: a good deal there. So if you've got a wedding

143
00:06:27,674 --> 00:06:29,954
Speaker 4: coming up and you need a gift, or maybe it's

144
00:06:29,993 --> 00:06:32,873
Speaker 4: like an engagement party, think about what you need for

145
00:06:32,953 --> 00:06:35,154
Speaker 4: the year ahead, and if you can plan that far

146
00:06:35,193 --> 00:06:36,753
Speaker 4: ahead and you can really get a good bargain.

147
00:06:36,993 --> 00:06:40,433
Speaker 3: Oh like lifestyle treats by yourself, a really beautiful candle

148
00:06:40,474 --> 00:06:43,113
Speaker 3: that you would never usually So like here I am

149
00:06:43,193 --> 00:06:45,914
Speaker 3: encouraging impulse shopping, but maybe there's if there's one that

150
00:06:45,953 --> 00:06:47,993
Speaker 3: you've had your eye on for sure, this might be

151
00:06:47,993 --> 00:06:51,034
Speaker 3: the time. Ye, yeah, for yourself. It's Christmas after all.

152
00:06:51,513 --> 00:06:54,153
Speaker 3: Next question that came up is there anything you would

153
00:06:54,193 --> 00:06:56,154
Speaker 3: never buy in the boxing day sales?

154
00:06:58,433 --> 00:07:01,553
Speaker 4: This might sound a little bit silly, but items that

155
00:07:01,633 --> 00:07:04,753
Speaker 4: actually aren't discounted. And what I mean by that is

156
00:07:04,794 --> 00:07:07,674
Speaker 4: if I go into Westfield and there's so much chaos

157
00:07:07,674 --> 00:07:09,714
Speaker 4: and frenzy going on and just go into the stores.

158
00:07:09,754 --> 00:07:12,314
Speaker 4: Some stores don't discount, especially some of the high d

159
00:07:12,393 --> 00:07:14,953
Speaker 4: luxury brands, but you're not really paying attention.

160
00:07:15,074 --> 00:07:17,434
Speaker 1: You might buy something or online as well.

161
00:07:17,674 --> 00:07:19,953
Speaker 4: It might just be like a ten or fifteen percent

162
00:07:20,034 --> 00:07:22,114
Speaker 4: discount you're not really getting, it's not really worth it,

163
00:07:22,114 --> 00:07:24,594
Speaker 4: but you're getting served all the ads and you get excited.

164
00:07:24,674 --> 00:07:27,034
Speaker 4: To just make sure what you're getting is actually a

165
00:07:27,034 --> 00:07:30,754
Speaker 4: good reasonable discount slash on sale.

166
00:07:31,194 --> 00:07:33,714
Speaker 3: So no, that's a really good flag because you can

167
00:07:33,714 --> 00:07:35,794
Speaker 3: get caught up in it and then find yourself buying

168
00:07:35,834 --> 00:07:38,034
Speaker 3: things you didn't need or didn't want, just because you're

169
00:07:38,114 --> 00:07:40,794
Speaker 3: kind of in the chaos of like you know, or

170
00:07:40,794 --> 00:07:42,474
Speaker 3: the sale mindset.

171
00:07:41,994 --> 00:07:46,154
Speaker 4: Totally and the multi brand department stores or multi brand

172
00:07:46,234 --> 00:07:49,713
Speaker 4: online stores. Yeah, some brands aren't actually discounted, So just

173
00:07:49,754 --> 00:07:52,034
Speaker 4: be mindful to make sure what you're buying is on sale.

174
00:07:52,074 --> 00:07:53,994
Speaker 3: Also, just to say, like ten if it's ten percent

175
00:07:54,074 --> 00:07:58,034
Speaker 3: or fifteen percent. Often if you subscribe to a sites

176
00:07:58,154 --> 00:08:01,114
Speaker 3: newsletter or a brand's newsletter or something, you can often

177
00:08:01,154 --> 00:08:02,834
Speaker 3: get like a first time off or of ten to

178
00:08:02,914 --> 00:08:05,234
Speaker 3: fifteen percent off anyway, So it might just be like

179
00:08:05,434 --> 00:08:07,634
Speaker 3: a little bit of a cheeky that they're doing ten percent.

180
00:08:07,674 --> 00:08:09,514
Speaker 3: It's not really that much off, is it.

181
00:08:09,674 --> 00:08:10,994
Speaker 1: So check that. Also.

182
00:08:11,114 --> 00:08:13,194
Speaker 4: One this is I am the worst at this, and

183
00:08:13,234 --> 00:08:15,074
Speaker 4: I still do it, and I think we've even spoken

184
00:08:15,074 --> 00:08:18,153
Speaker 4: about this town, but wrong size or color just because

185
00:08:18,154 --> 00:08:19,273
Speaker 4: it's on sale.

186
00:08:19,474 --> 00:08:22,354
Speaker 1: So I've done this with Baar Park. I find it's

187
00:08:22,393 --> 00:08:23,914
Speaker 1: either like the smallest.

188
00:08:23,474 --> 00:08:25,833
Speaker 4: Size or the biggest size left, so it's size six

189
00:08:25,914 --> 00:08:27,874
Speaker 4: or size fourteen. I was like, oh, well, I guess

190
00:08:27,874 --> 00:08:29,514
Speaker 4: I'm closer to the six and trying to get a

191
00:08:29,554 --> 00:08:32,554
Speaker 4: tailored from fourteen. They have a year on still with

192
00:08:32,594 --> 00:08:34,833
Speaker 4: the tag, they're not even near fitting and you might think, oh,

193
00:08:34,914 --> 00:08:37,594
Speaker 4: maybe the sizing is like a bit bigger or yeah,

194
00:08:37,674 --> 00:08:41,514
Speaker 4: So just because it's on sal just don't get cohersed

195
00:08:41,554 --> 00:08:44,434
Speaker 4: into like buying it and don't get too excited. Also

196
00:08:44,514 --> 00:08:46,874
Speaker 4: making sure it's what you actually want. So some things

197
00:08:46,914 --> 00:08:50,514
Speaker 4: like Triangle swimwear, I really want to print of the swimmers,

198
00:08:50,794 --> 00:08:52,274
Speaker 4: but it's not in my size, and I buy it

199
00:08:52,314 --> 00:08:54,034
Speaker 4: anyways and it's just the wrong size and it's still

200
00:08:54,074 --> 00:08:55,714
Speaker 4: sitting there. So just make sure you get the right

201
00:08:55,754 --> 00:08:59,034
Speaker 4: size and don't get over excited with trying to get

202
00:08:58,914 --> 00:08:59,314
Speaker 4: a peace.

203
00:08:59,514 --> 00:09:01,754
Speaker 3: No, I totally agree. I couldn't agree more. I think

204
00:09:01,834 --> 00:09:04,554
Speaker 3: to that point. For me, something that's like a watch

205
00:09:04,554 --> 00:09:08,634
Speaker 3: out personally is items I won't wear that much just

206
00:09:08,794 --> 00:09:11,994
Speaker 3: because they're cheap. And I've fallen into this trap before,

207
00:09:12,074 --> 00:09:14,074
Speaker 3: Like maybe you see a brand that you love but

208
00:09:14,154 --> 00:09:16,714
Speaker 3: you can't usually afford, and there's like a few things

209
00:09:16,794 --> 00:09:18,954
Speaker 3: left from that brand. You think, Okay, well, just to

210
00:09:18,994 --> 00:09:22,794
Speaker 3: get access to that brand, I'll do it. I'll buy

211
00:09:22,834 --> 00:09:24,874
Speaker 3: this because you know, even if it's an item that's

212
00:09:24,874 --> 00:09:27,994
Speaker 3: not really your usual style, or you know it doesn't

213
00:09:28,074 --> 00:09:30,194
Speaker 3: quite fit right like you said, or you know, just

214
00:09:30,234 --> 00:09:33,474
Speaker 3: because you're gaining the access. And that's a bit of

215
00:09:33,514 --> 00:09:35,554
Speaker 3: a trap because yeah, you might have the pride of

216
00:09:35,554 --> 00:09:37,354
Speaker 3: owning the piece from that brand, but are you going

217
00:09:37,394 --> 00:09:39,954
Speaker 3: to wear it? Does it address a need in your wardrobe?

218
00:09:40,194 --> 00:09:42,834
Speaker 3: I think I come back to this mantra over and

219
00:09:42,874 --> 00:09:45,474
Speaker 3: over again when it's sale time. And I believe I've

220
00:09:45,474 --> 00:09:48,154
Speaker 3: mentioned it before on this show. Ask yourself the question,

221
00:09:48,434 --> 00:09:50,874
Speaker 3: would I buy it if it weren't on sale? If

222
00:09:50,914 --> 00:09:53,194
Speaker 3: you're not prepared to pay full price for that item,

223
00:09:53,434 --> 00:09:54,914
Speaker 3: should you be buying it because it's cheap?

224
00:09:55,034 --> 00:09:55,314
Speaker 1: True?

225
00:09:55,354 --> 00:09:57,234
Speaker 4: And I feel like I've been sucking into that heaps

226
00:09:57,274 --> 00:09:59,354
Speaker 4: some time, So I'm buying it just because it's on sale.

227
00:09:59,434 --> 00:10:01,714
Speaker 3: You're getting fifty dollars off, and it's like, oh, fifty

228
00:10:01,754 --> 00:10:03,394
Speaker 3: dollars off that takes it down from one hundred and

229
00:10:03,434 --> 00:10:05,834
Speaker 3: fifty to one hundred. That's a great But then in

230
00:10:05,874 --> 00:10:08,954
Speaker 3: the life side of that piece, would that fifty dollars

231
00:10:09,034 --> 00:10:11,714
Speaker 3: have been better spent elsewhere on something you'd wear more?

232
00:10:12,074 --> 00:10:12,194
Speaker 4: So?

233
00:10:12,274 --> 00:10:12,554
Speaker 1: True?

234
00:10:12,634 --> 00:10:16,234
Speaker 3: Yeah, So November is like sale time, right, We've got

235
00:10:16,274 --> 00:10:19,994
Speaker 3: Black Friday, we've got Click Frenzy, Cyber Weekend. Are the

236
00:10:20,114 --> 00:10:22,794
Speaker 3: Boxing Day sales at the end of all that actually

237
00:10:22,954 --> 00:10:25,994
Speaker 3: still worth it? What makes them special? Listener?

238
00:10:27,154 --> 00:10:31,034
Speaker 4: Look, you're so right, Like I find November is the

239
00:10:31,474 --> 00:10:32,954
Speaker 4: almost the biggest time.

240
00:10:32,794 --> 00:10:33,994
Speaker 1: With all the different sales going it.

241
00:10:34,114 --> 00:10:36,954
Speaker 4: Is now, right, Yeah, and I feel like as consumers

242
00:10:36,954 --> 00:10:40,354
Speaker 4: we've got this delayed purchase mindset now where we're waiting

243
00:10:40,394 --> 00:10:43,114
Speaker 4: for November. Well, a good tip here is if you

244
00:10:43,194 --> 00:10:46,554
Speaker 4: miss something in that November frenzy of sales, you're going

245
00:10:46,634 --> 00:10:49,674
Speaker 4: to get that second wave of Boxing Day sales, and

246
00:10:49,714 --> 00:10:52,994
Speaker 4: you might even get bigger sales and discounts in Boxing

247
00:10:53,074 --> 00:10:55,754
Speaker 4: Day because remember Boxing Day, the day wasn't created to

248
00:10:55,754 --> 00:10:58,714
Speaker 4: give us a discount. It's for the stores to get

249
00:10:58,794 --> 00:11:01,634
Speaker 4: rid of all their inventory direct, so it's not really

250
00:11:01,714 --> 00:11:04,754
Speaker 4: for us. So just trying to palm off everything before

251
00:11:04,754 --> 00:11:07,434
Speaker 4: the year comes in. So yeah, it acts I guess

252
00:11:07,554 --> 00:11:10,834
Speaker 4: essentially as this second wave and so yeah, if you

253
00:11:10,834 --> 00:11:12,634
Speaker 4: miss something in November, you can still pick it up

254
00:11:12,634 --> 00:11:15,234
Speaker 4: in the Boxing Day Cells. I also personally love the

255
00:11:15,314 --> 00:11:18,314
Speaker 4: tradition around Boxing Day Cells. Like I said, I used

256
00:11:18,354 --> 00:11:20,234
Speaker 4: to going with my family. I still do it now.

257
00:11:20,434 --> 00:11:22,754
Speaker 4: If we're away for Christmas, we usually go to that

258
00:11:23,114 --> 00:11:26,194
Speaker 4: local westfield, whether it's er an Affair or Holegate or

259
00:11:26,194 --> 00:11:29,594
Speaker 4: wherever we are in New South Wales usually and you

260
00:11:29,634 --> 00:11:31,114
Speaker 4: get to explore a whole new westfield.

261
00:11:31,154 --> 00:11:34,194
Speaker 1: So yeah, I like the tradition of Boxing Day absolutely.

262
00:11:34,274 --> 00:11:37,194
Speaker 3: I think it's the atmosphere of other shopping lovers coming

263
00:11:37,194 --> 00:11:40,353
Speaker 3: out and seeing everyone with their bags. And yes, like capitalism,

264
00:11:40,474 --> 00:11:42,874
Speaker 3: consumeris and all of those things, but like I said,

265
00:11:42,914 --> 00:11:46,074
Speaker 3: it's Christmas, it's exciting, Like you know, it's the bit

266
00:11:46,114 --> 00:11:48,514
Speaker 3: of the thrill of being amongst a community of people

267
00:11:48,554 --> 00:11:51,074
Speaker 3: who love fashion and shopping as well. But I think

268
00:11:51,514 --> 00:11:54,034
Speaker 3: you know the other on the flip side, if a

269
00:11:54,074 --> 00:11:56,154
Speaker 3: shopping center is not your vibe. I know, for me,

270
00:11:56,394 --> 00:11:58,074
Speaker 3: I love going into a shopping center because I can

271
00:11:58,114 --> 00:12:00,754
Speaker 3: get everything I want. But like my husband, like you

272
00:12:00,914 --> 00:12:04,794
Speaker 3: could not drag him into a shopping center like blindfolded.

273
00:12:05,674 --> 00:12:08,114
Speaker 3: I think if you're going with family, or potentially you're

274
00:12:08,154 --> 00:12:10,194
Speaker 3: going with some girlfriends or even going alone for a

275
00:12:10,274 --> 00:12:14,354
Speaker 3: nice shopping day, you could always avoid like the chaos

276
00:12:14,354 --> 00:12:16,714
Speaker 3: of a shopping center because it is chaos. I'm boxing day,

277
00:12:16,714 --> 00:12:19,514
Speaker 3: and you could go to your local shopping high street

278
00:12:19,794 --> 00:12:22,674
Speaker 3: for example, in Paddington in Sydney they've got the intersection,

279
00:12:23,274 --> 00:12:25,314
Speaker 3: or you know, I think in South Yarra in Melbourne

280
00:12:25,314 --> 00:12:27,674
Speaker 3: there's this beautiful strip of shops and you can duck

281
00:12:27,714 --> 00:12:29,834
Speaker 3: into Mecca on your way and have like a day

282
00:12:29,874 --> 00:12:30,314
Speaker 3: of it.

283
00:12:30,234 --> 00:12:32,874
Speaker 1: And about parking.

284
00:12:33,154 --> 00:12:36,034
Speaker 3: Yeah, all of that. So like, you know, a more

285
00:12:36,074 --> 00:12:39,874
Speaker 3: intentional experience with a more curated selection of fashion labels,

286
00:12:39,874 --> 00:12:42,474
Speaker 3: perhaps if you know what the frenzy of like you know,

287
00:12:42,674 --> 00:12:54,154
Speaker 3: the big bargain signs everywhere and all that. Yeah.

288
00:12:54,474 --> 00:12:57,594
Speaker 4: So next question, are there any accounts, apps, influences that

289
00:12:57,674 --> 00:13:00,234
Speaker 4: you swear by for guidance during the boxing day sales?

290
00:13:00,474 --> 00:13:04,594
Speaker 3: I always have followed two broke chicks on Instagram. They've

291
00:13:04,594 --> 00:13:06,674
Speaker 3: been on the show before, and they are just like

292
00:13:06,834 --> 00:13:09,274
Speaker 3: they're they're just real about it, like they're you know,

293
00:13:09,314 --> 00:13:11,914
Speaker 3: they're shopping all the time. But they're also really great

294
00:13:11,954 --> 00:13:14,754
Speaker 3: with sharing what they do is they share like an

295
00:13:14,754 --> 00:13:17,994
Speaker 3: inventory list of like all the different like they share

296
00:13:18,034 --> 00:13:20,994
Speaker 3: a list of all the different sales happening and the

297
00:13:21,034 --> 00:13:23,474
Speaker 3: discounts offered, and they like that's something they do for

298
00:13:23,514 --> 00:13:25,514
Speaker 3: their community. And they've got like lots of good little

299
00:13:25,514 --> 00:13:29,194
Speaker 3: tips and tricks and real life experiences shopping you know,

300
00:13:29,274 --> 00:13:32,074
Speaker 3: in person and sharing content around that. So yeah, that's

301
00:13:32,114 --> 00:13:33,874
Speaker 3: you know, that's a great one to follow. What about you.

302
00:13:34,234 --> 00:13:37,514
Speaker 4: I also love Australian fashion sales. I think her name

303
00:13:37,554 --> 00:13:39,714
Speaker 4: is Sabrina and she's also been on the pod with you. Yeah,

304
00:13:39,834 --> 00:13:42,554
Speaker 4: that's right, and she's really good just for not just

305
00:13:42,594 --> 00:13:45,754
Speaker 4: boxing day sales, but the warehouse and sample sales. She's

306
00:13:45,754 --> 00:13:48,594
Speaker 4: based in Melbourne as well, so if you're a Melbourne listener,

307
00:13:48,594 --> 00:13:52,394
Speaker 4: but she does show nationally all the different sales. But generally,

308
00:13:52,474 --> 00:13:54,354
Speaker 4: I just find if there's a brand that you like,

309
00:13:54,514 --> 00:13:56,954
Speaker 4: just make sure you're following them on Instagram and the

310
00:13:57,114 --> 00:13:58,754
Speaker 4: DM as well. I know it's a bit annoying, but

311
00:13:59,074 --> 00:14:01,194
Speaker 4: you just know when the sales are happening at what

312
00:14:01,314 --> 00:14:04,914
Speaker 4: the sales are, so you can get prepared and you

313
00:14:04,954 --> 00:14:08,034
Speaker 4: can maybe put like a little note in your calendar

314
00:14:08,034 --> 00:14:09,634
Speaker 4: about when the sale starts so you can be one

315
00:14:09,634 --> 00:14:11,274
Speaker 4: of the first to get the sizes that you need.

316
00:14:11,474 --> 00:14:14,434
Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely, or just have your phone littered with screenshots

317
00:14:14,434 --> 00:14:15,714
Speaker 3: throughout your camera roll of.

318
00:14:16,274 --> 00:14:17,154
Speaker 1: More really what I do?

319
00:14:17,274 --> 00:14:19,914
Speaker 3: Yes, that's mine. I'm like, oh, yeah, that's right. Half

320
00:14:19,954 --> 00:14:21,114
Speaker 3: a scroll back through my photos.

321
00:14:21,114 --> 00:14:22,034
Speaker 1: Oh no, I missed it.

322
00:14:22,234 --> 00:14:25,394
Speaker 3: Yeah, like I said, nowhere near as organized as I

323
00:14:25,474 --> 00:14:25,874
Speaker 3: could be.

324
00:14:26,034 --> 00:14:28,954
Speaker 1: But yes, those are a few tips. All right.

325
00:14:29,034 --> 00:14:31,514
Speaker 3: Where can you typically find the best deals or are

326
00:14:31,554 --> 00:14:33,754
Speaker 3: there any brands that rarely go on sale to watch

327
00:14:33,794 --> 00:14:35,834
Speaker 3: out for? This is a good question.

328
00:14:36,754 --> 00:14:40,034
Speaker 4: So I prefer shopping the multi brand sites like the

329
00:14:40,274 --> 00:14:41,474
Speaker 4: iconic Netaporte.

330
00:14:41,714 --> 00:14:44,114
Speaker 1: I just find it's a little bit easier far fetched.

331
00:14:44,394 --> 00:14:47,154
Speaker 4: I don't know how you are, or sometimes I don't

332
00:14:47,194 --> 00:14:49,074
Speaker 4: know exactly what I want, so I need to go

333
00:14:49,074 --> 00:14:52,114
Speaker 4: to the multi brand sites to sort of get that inspiration. Yes,

334
00:14:52,394 --> 00:14:55,874
Speaker 4: I find Vestia Collective have a really big sale, so

335
00:14:56,434 --> 00:14:58,874
Speaker 4: heavily discounted sale, I should say, so last year they

336
00:14:58,874 --> 00:15:01,874
Speaker 4: had seventy percent off. Vestia Collective is one of my

337
00:15:01,994 --> 00:15:05,394
Speaker 4: favorite apps, so I'm generally on the app a few

338
00:15:05,474 --> 00:15:07,474
Speaker 4: times a week, just sort of having a little par ruse.

339
00:15:07,834 --> 00:15:11,394
Speaker 4: But it is pre loved items so high end. I'd

340
00:15:11,434 --> 00:15:15,834
Speaker 4: say mid range to high end brands, but it's secondhand.

341
00:15:15,274 --> 00:15:15,874
Speaker 1: Pre loved.

342
00:15:15,994 --> 00:15:17,554
Speaker 3: Okay, Yeah, I love.

343
00:15:17,394 --> 00:15:21,154
Speaker 4: Getting some really unique vintage pieces like graphic teas or

344
00:15:21,514 --> 00:15:23,714
Speaker 4: retro ski Jacket's niche.

345
00:15:23,754 --> 00:15:26,114
Speaker 3: But yeah, I didn't know they did a big boxing

346
00:15:26,194 --> 00:15:26,634
Speaker 3: day sales.

347
00:15:26,714 --> 00:15:31,234
Speaker 1: Yeah, seventy, so it's really good for me.

348
00:15:31,474 --> 00:15:34,474
Speaker 3: I always yeah, similar to you. I will start with

349
00:15:34,594 --> 00:15:37,114
Speaker 3: sites like it used to be Matches Fashion, but they

350
00:15:37,114 --> 00:15:41,234
Speaker 3: don't matter out Matches anymore, rip Matches, but Netaporter, Myteries,

351
00:15:41,474 --> 00:15:45,994
Speaker 3: Luisa via Roma. These are all the European based actually

352
00:15:46,274 --> 00:15:50,514
Speaker 3: over the pond, I guess europe and America based multi

353
00:15:50,514 --> 00:15:54,674
Speaker 3: brand sites, but luxury brands. I tend to go there

354
00:15:54,794 --> 00:15:57,794
Speaker 3: first because you just need to remember that there are

355
00:15:57,794 --> 00:16:00,194
Speaker 3: a lot of eyeballs looking at the sales at the

356
00:16:00,194 --> 00:16:03,874
Speaker 3: same time, snapping up designer bargains, so you know this

357
00:16:03,954 --> 00:16:06,634
Speaker 3: is this is the time to act quickly. Yeah, like,

358
00:16:06,674 --> 00:16:10,114
Speaker 3: I don't want pressure anyone, but like, as you're looking

359
00:16:10,154 --> 00:16:15,154
Speaker 3: at that pair of heavily discounted Gucci slides, so are

360
00:16:15,554 --> 00:16:17,474
Speaker 3: thousands of other people at the same time, and the

361
00:16:17,594 --> 00:16:21,714
Speaker 3: sizes disappear before you're very literally like all of a sudden,

362
00:16:21,714 --> 00:16:24,434
Speaker 3: you'll refresh the page. For shopping online, You're refresh the

363
00:16:24,474 --> 00:16:26,794
Speaker 3: page and the thirty eights are gone and thirty sevens

364
00:16:26,834 --> 00:16:28,874
Speaker 3: are gone at thirty nine, so you got to act quickly.

365
00:16:28,914 --> 00:16:30,634
Speaker 3: So for me, some of the best things I've bought

366
00:16:30,674 --> 00:16:35,594
Speaker 3: in the boxing day sales, I've bought Blenciaga platform sandals

367
00:16:35,594 --> 00:16:39,394
Speaker 3: in the past or more than half price off. I

368
00:16:39,434 --> 00:16:42,274
Speaker 3: bought an APC handbag that I still use today and

369
00:16:42,274 --> 00:16:44,954
Speaker 3: I'm bought that years ago. A pair of heels from

370
00:16:45,074 --> 00:16:49,514
Speaker 3: Chloe that I love and have had repaired a few times. Yeah.

371
00:16:49,554 --> 00:16:51,594
Speaker 4: On that point as well, Tam, if you have a

372
00:16:51,634 --> 00:16:54,274
Speaker 4: piece in mind, like a certain Agme dress that you

373
00:16:54,434 --> 00:16:56,714
Speaker 4: know you want in the cells, would you then suggest

374
00:16:56,794 --> 00:16:59,074
Speaker 4: going straight to that website just bee line straight there,

375
00:16:59,154 --> 00:17:01,034
Speaker 4: get it on that website rather than trying to go

376
00:17:01,114 --> 00:17:03,314
Speaker 4: through whatever else is there French Channel.

377
00:17:03,674 --> 00:17:04,994
Speaker 1: Yeah, good question.

378
00:17:05,154 --> 00:17:06,714
Speaker 3: I mean I don't really think it matters like I

379
00:17:06,754 --> 00:17:08,914
Speaker 3: think if you've had an experience with that brand before.

380
00:17:09,314 --> 00:17:11,594
Speaker 3: I'm trying to think of an example. Here's an example.

381
00:17:11,754 --> 00:17:14,874
Speaker 3: Blanka is an Australian brand that I really love and support,

382
00:17:15,194 --> 00:17:17,954
Speaker 3: and they have sales throughout the year, and I go

383
00:17:18,034 --> 00:17:21,234
Speaker 3: straight to their site because I can look at the

384
00:17:21,234 --> 00:17:24,394
Speaker 3: full range easily. I'm familiar with it. Another one is

385
00:17:24,474 --> 00:17:26,234
Speaker 3: Zulu and Zephyr. These are just a couple of my

386
00:17:26,274 --> 00:17:28,874
Speaker 3: favorite Australian brands off the cuff that I you know,

387
00:17:28,954 --> 00:17:30,674
Speaker 3: when they go on sale, I'm like, straight.

388
00:17:30,434 --> 00:17:33,674
Speaker 4: I've probably got more inventory on the main website, so

389
00:17:33,674 --> 00:17:35,234
Speaker 4: you probably better off going to them.

390
00:17:35,834 --> 00:17:39,793
Speaker 3: Than another another out like like a Style Runner or

391
00:17:40,954 --> 00:17:42,194
Speaker 3: David Jones or something like that.

392
00:17:42,274 --> 00:17:42,474
Speaker 1: Yeah.

393
00:17:42,474 --> 00:17:43,954
Speaker 3: I think if you want access to the full range,

394
00:17:44,034 --> 00:17:46,154
Speaker 3: especially if you're a big fan of the brand, you

395
00:17:46,194 --> 00:17:48,154
Speaker 3: and you want to you know, like you shop them

396
00:17:48,154 --> 00:17:51,194
Speaker 3: often anyway. Yeah, I think going straight to the source

397
00:17:51,474 --> 00:17:52,554
Speaker 3: is the smart option.

398
00:17:52,674 --> 00:17:52,874
Speaker 2: Yeah.

399
00:17:53,074 --> 00:17:55,834
Speaker 3: But I think with the design with real luxury brands,

400
00:17:55,874 --> 00:17:58,714
Speaker 3: like I'm talking about Gucci, Balenciaga, you know, Botega, Venetta,

401
00:17:58,794 --> 00:18:01,114
Speaker 3: what have you for me? Like, I just am not

402
00:18:01,274 --> 00:18:03,914
Speaker 3: I don't know about you, Lucinda, but I've still been

403
00:18:03,954 --> 00:18:06,514
Speaker 3: having been a fashion editor for best part of twenty years,

404
00:18:06,554 --> 00:18:09,794
Speaker 3: I'm still not comfortable walking into those boutiques. They don't

405
00:18:09,994 --> 00:18:11,794
Speaker 3: tend to do I don't actually know if they do

406
00:18:12,314 --> 00:18:13,313
Speaker 3: boxing days.

407
00:18:13,914 --> 00:18:15,714
Speaker 1: I don't think a lot of those high end brands.

408
00:18:15,634 --> 00:18:18,954
Speaker 3: It's why it's so exciting when a Neda Porte or

409
00:18:19,154 --> 00:18:22,114
Speaker 3: you know, a Louis a via Roma discount those brands.

410
00:18:22,114 --> 00:18:23,994
Speaker 3: And who knows how that works. I mean, I don't

411
00:18:23,994 --> 00:18:25,353
Speaker 3: know if it comes from the top down and they

412
00:18:25,394 --> 00:18:28,794
Speaker 3: give the allowance for you know, a certain percentage off

413
00:18:28,834 --> 00:18:31,874
Speaker 3: their their goods, or if it happens some other shifty way.

414
00:18:31,914 --> 00:18:34,114
Speaker 3: But but that's pretty much the only way to get

415
00:18:34,194 --> 00:18:35,194
Speaker 3: discounts on some of those.

416
00:18:35,194 --> 00:18:36,033
Speaker 1: It's so true.

417
00:18:36,114 --> 00:18:38,273
Speaker 4: Yeah, I do love going into the store, though, Like

418
00:18:38,314 --> 00:18:40,553
Speaker 4: if I was going to buy something going in in

419
00:18:40,594 --> 00:18:41,834
Speaker 4: the champagne.

420
00:18:41,834 --> 00:18:42,553
Speaker 1: Yeah it is.

421
00:18:43,914 --> 00:18:46,033
Speaker 3: I need to like really get confident to do that.

422
00:18:46,154 --> 00:18:47,874
Speaker 3: I just feel like they're looking to be like, what

423
00:18:47,874 --> 00:18:50,434
Speaker 3: are you doing here? I think a lot of us

424
00:18:50,434 --> 00:18:51,274
Speaker 3: feel the same way.

425
00:18:51,314 --> 00:18:52,594
Speaker 1: All right, Well.

426
00:18:52,514 --> 00:18:53,874
Speaker 4: Let's come up with a bit of a plan of

427
00:18:53,914 --> 00:18:57,594
Speaker 4: attack for shopping at the sales, whether it be in

428
00:18:57,594 --> 00:19:01,834
Speaker 4: person or online. But just say you were going into

429
00:19:01,994 --> 00:19:04,114
Speaker 4: say the CBD or into a shopping center.

430
00:19:04,834 --> 00:19:06,474
Speaker 1: Do you have any just general tips?

431
00:19:06,554 --> 00:19:09,434
Speaker 3: Okay, I think if you're going to a shopping center,

432
00:19:09,434 --> 00:19:13,114
Speaker 3: particularly go alone. I just don't think this is I'm

433
00:19:13,114 --> 00:19:14,714
Speaker 3: all for a shopping day with friends or with your

434
00:19:14,754 --> 00:19:17,914
Speaker 3: mum or whatever. Dragging your sorry husband along. Fine, but

435
00:19:18,114 --> 00:19:20,514
Speaker 3: I do not think that this is the day for it.

436
00:19:20,874 --> 00:19:23,354
Speaker 3: I like to go alone because I need to focus,

437
00:19:23,434 --> 00:19:25,274
Speaker 3: I need to move quickly, I need to know where

438
00:19:25,314 --> 00:19:28,314
Speaker 3: I'm going. I've got my own agenda. I'm trying things on,

439
00:19:28,714 --> 00:19:29,314
Speaker 3: you know, like.

440
00:19:29,274 --> 00:19:30,434
Speaker 1: Skin, you're on a mission.

441
00:19:30,514 --> 00:19:31,274
Speaker 3: I want a mission.

442
00:19:31,434 --> 00:19:33,074
Speaker 1: I like going with people. But then you just say

443
00:19:33,114 --> 00:19:35,274
Speaker 1: see at the front and then you meet up for lunch.

444
00:19:35,274 --> 00:19:36,954
Speaker 3: I'm a meeting point like at a festival.

445
00:19:37,114 --> 00:19:38,834
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's hilarious.

446
00:19:38,994 --> 00:19:42,553
Speaker 3: And then yeah, this might sound a bit counterintuitive, and

447
00:19:42,674 --> 00:19:45,313
Speaker 3: I wonder if we might have different strategies here. But

448
00:19:45,394 --> 00:19:49,033
Speaker 3: I actually prefer to go later in the day. Sure

449
00:19:49,154 --> 00:19:51,634
Speaker 3: you might miss a few of like the bargains, yes,

450
00:19:51,794 --> 00:19:53,793
Speaker 3: like there might be a few things that have already

451
00:19:53,794 --> 00:19:56,514
Speaker 3: trickled through, and you you know, but I just I'm

452
00:19:56,554 --> 00:19:58,994
Speaker 3: not into the chaos of it, Like I would rather

453
00:19:59,074 --> 00:20:01,234
Speaker 3: have a bit more breathing room and space and peace.

454
00:20:02,594 --> 00:20:04,674
Speaker 3: There's still a lot of stock later in the day.

455
00:20:04,794 --> 00:20:07,394
Speaker 4: To me, You're right, I do like going at the

456
00:20:07,394 --> 00:20:09,714
Speaker 4: beginning of the day. I think I buy in personally

457
00:20:09,754 --> 00:20:10,954
Speaker 4: to that frenzy.

458
00:20:10,634 --> 00:20:13,114
Speaker 3: Are you and elbows out kind of shove? Would you fight?

459
00:20:13,194 --> 00:20:14,194
Speaker 3: With someone over a scar.

460
00:20:14,594 --> 00:20:16,714
Speaker 4: I do like I do hustle my way through in

461
00:20:16,754 --> 00:20:18,554
Speaker 4: sort of a sample sale, But yeah, I do.

462
00:20:18,674 --> 00:20:19,714
Speaker 1: I do like going early.

463
00:20:20,074 --> 00:20:23,034
Speaker 4: It's that adrenaline almost well for me, it's the fear

464
00:20:23,074 --> 00:20:24,954
Speaker 4: of missing out on a piece that I really want.

465
00:20:25,154 --> 00:20:26,994
Speaker 1: And it's also the parking as well. I just want

466
00:20:27,034 --> 00:20:28,073
Speaker 1: to get a really good park.

467
00:20:28,354 --> 00:20:31,513
Speaker 3: You are again so type A whereas I just like

468
00:20:31,674 --> 00:20:34,994
Speaker 3: roll in when I get there. No, I totally yeah.

469
00:20:35,074 --> 00:20:36,674
Speaker 3: I think it depends on the type of person you

470
00:20:36,674 --> 00:20:38,793
Speaker 3: are and what you're prepared to deal with when you

471
00:20:38,834 --> 00:20:39,194
Speaker 3: get there.

472
00:20:39,394 --> 00:20:41,914
Speaker 4: And also in general, like we sort of spoke about

473
00:20:41,954 --> 00:20:46,114
Speaker 4: having your notes app and start populating pre populating this

474
00:20:46,434 --> 00:20:49,154
Speaker 4: almost even like months in advance, like I know it's

475
00:20:49,594 --> 00:20:52,434
Speaker 4: Boxing day now, but yeah, really start thinking about all

476
00:20:52,434 --> 00:20:55,194
Speaker 4: those different verticals, what you need personally, but not just you,

477
00:20:55,194 --> 00:20:57,754
Speaker 4: your partner presence for the year ahead, so you have

478
00:20:57,874 --> 00:20:59,793
Speaker 4: a plan of attack and you know exactly what you're

479
00:20:59,794 --> 00:21:00,474
Speaker 4: going to do when you.

480
00:21:00,394 --> 00:21:03,033
Speaker 3: Go, Okay, what are we wearing? You know, like, what

481
00:21:03,074 --> 00:21:03,273
Speaker 3: are we?

482
00:21:03,434 --> 00:21:03,634
Speaker 1: Yeah?

483
00:21:03,714 --> 00:21:05,594
Speaker 4: We'd I think we're going to be opposites on this

484
00:21:05,674 --> 00:21:07,354
Speaker 4: as well. Tab I go to full glows. I am

485
00:21:07,434 --> 00:21:10,394
Speaker 4: hair and makeup and active wear. And I just do

486
00:21:10,434 --> 00:21:12,794
Speaker 4: that because if I'm wearing, say a dress, or I'm shopping,

487
00:21:12,874 --> 00:21:14,434
Speaker 4: I want to know what it will look like when

488
00:21:14,434 --> 00:21:14,914
Speaker 4: I'm out.

489
00:21:15,434 --> 00:21:17,914
Speaker 3: This is so interesting. I just knew you were going

490
00:21:17,954 --> 00:21:22,194
Speaker 3: to say that. Okay, I have a very opposing theory here,

491
00:21:22,274 --> 00:21:25,154
Speaker 3: which is like, if I see myself in full glam

492
00:21:25,674 --> 00:21:28,234
Speaker 3: in an item of clothing in a store, like I'm

493
00:21:28,234 --> 00:21:30,474
Speaker 3: more likely to buy it on the spot because I

494
00:21:30,514 --> 00:21:32,714
Speaker 3: look better in it, whereas I'd rather have like the

495
00:21:32,754 --> 00:21:35,914
Speaker 3: stripped down version of daily version of me interest to

496
00:21:35,914 --> 00:21:38,234
Speaker 3: measure against to know whether it's the hair and makeup

497
00:21:38,274 --> 00:21:40,033
Speaker 3: that's selling the thing to me, or if.

498
00:21:39,874 --> 00:21:42,273
Speaker 4: It's maybe me consciously. I know that as well, and

499
00:21:42,314 --> 00:21:43,274
Speaker 4: I just want to buy something.

500
00:21:44,314 --> 00:21:46,154
Speaker 1: But yeah, I just think as well, like I wear

501
00:21:46,274 --> 00:21:47,834
Speaker 1: self tan, so I want to know what it would

502
00:21:47,834 --> 00:21:49,513
Speaker 1: look like with the tan on, you know. I just

503
00:21:49,674 --> 00:21:51,594
Speaker 1: I don't know. I just want the whole package.

504
00:21:51,754 --> 00:21:54,434
Speaker 4: But I do wear active wear as well, just and

505
00:21:54,834 --> 00:21:57,194
Speaker 4: active wear and some sort of flip flop or thong.

506
00:21:57,194 --> 00:21:59,154
Speaker 3: Yeah, rather than a sneaker that you constantly have to

507
00:21:59,154 --> 00:22:00,994
Speaker 3: pull on on or off. I think my tip here

508
00:22:01,074 --> 00:22:03,313
Speaker 3: is maybe in the same vein of what I was

509
00:22:03,314 --> 00:22:05,114
Speaker 3: saying about how I like to come as I am

510
00:22:05,194 --> 00:22:08,234
Speaker 3: on a daily basis. Actually wear like a pair of

511
00:22:08,314 --> 00:22:10,314
Speaker 3: jeans or a T shirt that you wear all the time,

512
00:22:10,434 --> 00:22:12,513
Speaker 3: so you kind of know whether that piece you're looking at,

513
00:22:12,554 --> 00:22:14,434
Speaker 3: for example, if you're buying new jeans or you're buying

514
00:22:14,434 --> 00:22:16,794
Speaker 3: a different shirt, is going to synchronize with the wardrobe.

515
00:22:16,794 --> 00:22:18,914
Speaker 3: But you're ready to have. Yeah, I made a mistake

516
00:22:18,954 --> 00:22:20,914
Speaker 3: in the past of wearing a dress to go to

517
00:22:20,954 --> 00:22:23,914
Speaker 3: the sales and then you have to grab another item

518
00:22:24,274 --> 00:22:26,553
Speaker 3: to try T shirts on with or to try pants

519
00:22:26,554 --> 00:22:28,754
Speaker 3: on with, or you're standing there half naked in the change.

520
00:22:29,034 --> 00:22:31,314
Speaker 4: It's not ideal, that's yeah, and you've got to sort

521
00:22:31,314 --> 00:22:32,634
Speaker 4: of picture what that would look like.

522
00:22:32,834 --> 00:22:33,154
Speaker 2: Yeah.

523
00:22:33,314 --> 00:22:35,394
Speaker 4: I also think if you're shopping for, say a black

524
00:22:35,434 --> 00:22:38,794
Speaker 4: tie dress, bring the spanks if you're planning, or bring

525
00:22:38,794 --> 00:22:41,634
Speaker 4: spanks you if you're looking for a strapless dress, bring

526
00:22:41,674 --> 00:22:42,954
Speaker 4: the strapless brand.

527
00:22:42,794 --> 00:22:44,434
Speaker 3: All the shoes that you're going to team the dress

528
00:22:44,474 --> 00:22:44,954
Speaker 3: with or whatever.

529
00:22:44,994 --> 00:22:46,593
Speaker 4: That many times I've been at the shots with like

530
00:22:46,594 --> 00:22:48,513
Speaker 4: my mom or my sister going oh, but imagine if

531
00:22:48,554 --> 00:22:50,114
Speaker 4: I had spanks on it. It's like, well, if we

532
00:22:50,194 --> 00:22:52,194
Speaker 4: had them here, we could see because they don't always work.

533
00:22:52,754 --> 00:22:53,994
Speaker 1: So if you're looking for a.

534
00:22:53,914 --> 00:22:57,353
Speaker 4: Piece that needs specific lagerie or spanks, just whack them

535
00:22:57,354 --> 00:22:59,074
Speaker 4: in a bag and then you've got them there to

536
00:22:59,114 --> 00:22:59,754
Speaker 4: try on as well.

537
00:22:59,834 --> 00:23:01,794
Speaker 3: Yeah, she's smart. You're going to be laden with bags

538
00:23:01,834 --> 00:23:04,074
Speaker 3: at the end of the day. There's nothing worse than

539
00:23:04,154 --> 00:23:06,674
Speaker 3: like carrying them around. Like they need to.

540
00:23:06,634 --> 00:23:08,154
Speaker 1: Set up lockers.

541
00:23:08,314 --> 00:23:11,154
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's where you can put your shopping halfway through

542
00:23:11,194 --> 00:23:13,593
Speaker 3: the day that could carry on. Maybe they have that.

543
00:23:13,874 --> 00:23:16,794
Speaker 1: Also, I like to bring water and snacks.

544
00:23:16,954 --> 00:23:19,234
Speaker 4: If I'm seriously there at a shop, I don't want

545
00:23:19,234 --> 00:23:22,114
Speaker 4: to stop for lunch, so bringing like some food and

546
00:23:22,154 --> 00:23:26,074
Speaker 4: water so I'm just there, so yeah, just to save

547
00:23:26,154 --> 00:23:28,793
Speaker 4: that time, just get in and out, especially if it

548
00:23:28,874 --> 00:23:30,154
Speaker 4: is Boxing day and you sort of want to get

549
00:23:30,194 --> 00:23:33,354
Speaker 4: home to the family. And also when you go to

550
00:23:33,474 --> 00:23:36,634
Speaker 4: say a New Westfield, have a look online, get a

551
00:23:36,714 --> 00:23:38,994
Speaker 4: lay of the land of what shops they have, not

552
00:23:39,034 --> 00:23:41,594
Speaker 4: necessarily level by level, but just sort.

553
00:23:41,354 --> 00:23:43,674
Speaker 1: Of know the shops that you want to go to

554
00:23:44,034 --> 00:23:44,754
Speaker 1: what they do have.

555
00:23:44,914 --> 00:23:46,594
Speaker 3: That's such a good point because with the shopping set

556
00:23:46,634 --> 00:23:50,114
Speaker 3: are like Chadston, right, it is huge, Like I was

557
00:23:50,154 --> 00:23:52,394
Speaker 3: there not too long ago for a like I filmed

558
00:23:52,394 --> 00:23:55,234
Speaker 3: some content there and I hadn't been in ages, and

559
00:23:55,274 --> 00:23:56,954
Speaker 3: I was like, this is the most this is first

560
00:23:56,954 --> 00:23:58,514
Speaker 3: of all, this is the most magical place on earth.

561
00:23:58,514 --> 00:24:01,874
Speaker 3: But secondly, like it is just there are districts. There's

562
00:24:01,914 --> 00:24:04,554
Speaker 3: a luxury district, and there's like a you know, there's

563
00:24:04,594 --> 00:24:07,594
Speaker 3: the uniclo in the and Zara h. We're all next

564
00:24:07,594 --> 00:24:09,594
Speaker 3: to each other. But if you don't know that going in,

565
00:24:10,114 --> 00:24:13,273
Speaker 3: like you can get so lost and you can waste

566
00:24:13,314 --> 00:24:15,833
Speaker 3: so much time just like pounding the pavement trying to

567
00:24:15,834 --> 00:24:16,954
Speaker 3: find the shops you need.

568
00:24:16,994 --> 00:24:18,434
Speaker 1: Do you think they're all a bit like that now?

569
00:24:18,514 --> 00:24:20,994
Speaker 4: Like even Bondi Westfield the two sections of it, and

570
00:24:21,074 --> 00:24:22,554
Speaker 4: Chats would and Chats would chase.

571
00:24:22,834 --> 00:24:24,794
Speaker 3: I don't understand why we can't just have all the

572
00:24:24,794 --> 00:24:26,634
Speaker 3: shops in one place. And that's why I mean, but

573
00:24:26,714 --> 00:24:28,594
Speaker 3: that's what they've done. They put the shops in one place,

574
00:24:28,634 --> 00:24:30,674
Speaker 3: but their heads, they need you need a bloody coated

575
00:24:30,954 --> 00:24:33,634
Speaker 3: map in a system and like you know, like pins

576
00:24:33,674 --> 00:24:35,474
Speaker 3: on a wall to find where you're going. But I

577
00:24:35,594 --> 00:24:38,394
Speaker 3: that's why I kind of just bow out sometimes and

578
00:24:38,434 --> 00:24:40,434
Speaker 3: I end up going to like I said before, like

579
00:24:40,474 --> 00:24:43,513
Speaker 3: the shopping strips that are they've curated the shops for you.

580
00:24:43,634 --> 00:24:46,034
Speaker 3: I just have like got my Zimmerman and I've got

581
00:24:46,034 --> 00:24:47,834
Speaker 3: my you know, like I got all the stores.

582
00:24:48,114 --> 00:24:50,754
Speaker 4: I've stopped the impulse buying to a degree as well.

583
00:24:50,754 --> 00:24:53,234
Speaker 4: I guess you still could in those shops, but yeah.

584
00:24:52,994 --> 00:24:56,314
Speaker 1: You could. You probably need more damage, all right.

585
00:24:56,354 --> 00:24:58,634
Speaker 4: So how can we avoid falling into the trap of

586
00:24:58,674 --> 00:25:01,634
Speaker 4: buying lots of cheaper items in the chaos of everything

587
00:25:01,674 --> 00:25:04,434
Speaker 4: going on? How can we make more conscious decisions to

588
00:25:04,514 --> 00:25:06,714
Speaker 4: buy more curated pieces?

589
00:25:06,754 --> 00:25:07,594
Speaker 3: Such a good question.

590
00:25:07,674 --> 00:25:08,553
Speaker 1: I wish I knew he had.

591
00:25:09,034 --> 00:25:13,554
Speaker 3: No I'm going to say, Look, there's something that I've

592
00:25:13,554 --> 00:25:15,994
Speaker 3: been trying to keep in mind when I'm shopping. Is

593
00:25:16,074 --> 00:25:19,554
Speaker 3: like having a bit of a mantra around the day,

594
00:25:19,594 --> 00:25:21,514
Speaker 3: like that I set for the day. This sounds very

595
00:25:21,594 --> 00:25:24,434
Speaker 3: spiritual and we were of me, but like giving myself

596
00:25:24,514 --> 00:25:26,754
Speaker 3: a bit of a even if it's a theme for

597
00:25:26,794 --> 00:25:29,754
Speaker 3: the day, like or even if it's honing in like

598
00:25:30,314 --> 00:25:32,994
Speaker 3: on your three words. I don't know if you've done

599
00:25:33,034 --> 00:25:36,553
Speaker 3: that exercise around defining what your three words are?

600
00:25:36,834 --> 00:25:38,634
Speaker 1: Questions that we ask on the pot, isn't it with

601
00:25:38,674 --> 00:25:41,313
Speaker 1: the Yeah, what were yours? You remember?

602
00:25:41,434 --> 00:25:45,594
Speaker 3: I remember two of the words effortless, coastal, maybe like

603
00:25:45,714 --> 00:25:47,874
Speaker 3: laid back all very much in that, but that's like

604
00:25:47,914 --> 00:25:50,954
Speaker 3: suits my lifestyle where I am and yeah yeah.

605
00:25:50,754 --> 00:25:54,194
Speaker 4: And reminding yourself of those words going into the shop,

606
00:25:54,194 --> 00:25:55,714
Speaker 4: that's a great idea or who you want to be

607
00:25:55,794 --> 00:25:56,513
Speaker 4: for the year ahead.

608
00:25:56,634 --> 00:25:58,634
Speaker 3: Oh I like that? Can you like flesh that out

609
00:25:58,634 --> 00:25:58,954
Speaker 3: of it?

610
00:25:59,194 --> 00:25:59,354
Speaker 2: Think?

611
00:25:59,434 --> 00:26:01,474
Speaker 1: Because I find my words always evolving.

612
00:26:01,474 --> 00:26:03,754
Speaker 4: I think when I was on this podcast, my three words,

613
00:26:04,074 --> 00:26:05,754
Speaker 4: I said country club chic.

614
00:26:07,274 --> 00:26:10,834
Speaker 1: That's great and that's still an element of my life.

615
00:26:10,874 --> 00:26:13,274
Speaker 4: But just reflecting on the shopping I've done this year,

616
00:26:13,834 --> 00:26:15,513
Speaker 4: I've feel a little bit chaotic. Do you have a

617
00:26:15,514 --> 00:26:17,874
Speaker 4: look to ham at your wardrobe and just it stresses

618
00:26:17,914 --> 00:26:20,434
Speaker 4: you out? And I feel like I'm at that point now.

619
00:26:20,474 --> 00:26:22,794
Speaker 4: I've sort of lost my way with my own personal

620
00:26:22,874 --> 00:26:24,874
Speaker 4: style and I need to rain it back in.

621
00:26:24,954 --> 00:26:26,234
Speaker 1: So I think my word's going in.

622
00:26:26,274 --> 00:26:28,234
Speaker 4: I'd want to sort of look at maybe more refined,

623
00:26:28,354 --> 00:26:32,434
Speaker 4: elegant staples because I've bought so many occasion dresses and

624
00:26:32,474 --> 00:26:34,074
Speaker 4: things like that this year that I've.

625
00:26:34,034 --> 00:26:34,914
Speaker 1: Just lost my way.

626
00:26:35,074 --> 00:26:38,513
Speaker 4: So yeah, I guess having that plan to reshape my

627
00:26:38,594 --> 00:26:40,914
Speaker 4: wardrobe is actually what I'm going to do this year.

628
00:26:40,994 --> 00:26:43,074
Speaker 3: Yeah, I love that. Just making sure that you're a

629
00:26:43,114 --> 00:26:45,594
Speaker 3: bit more vetted in your choices, and sometimes you need

630
00:26:45,634 --> 00:26:48,834
Speaker 3: something to keep yourself in alignment. So whether it's words

631
00:26:48,914 --> 00:26:50,594
Speaker 3: or like whether it's coming up with a mantra for

632
00:26:50,634 --> 00:26:54,674
Speaker 3: the day, like reminding yourself that you don't need anything new.

633
00:26:54,834 --> 00:26:56,834
Speaker 3: But if you come across something that serves you and

634
00:26:56,874 --> 00:26:58,874
Speaker 3: serves your wardrobe and your style in it, you can

635
00:26:58,914 --> 00:27:02,394
Speaker 3: welcome it into your what draws me very stage and

636
00:27:02,554 --> 00:27:04,594
Speaker 3: z over here like that's my aproch of.

637
00:27:04,514 --> 00:27:06,674
Speaker 1: Being zen going down to the Paddington intersection.

638
00:27:07,914 --> 00:27:10,154
Speaker 3: I'm so said, I have a cup of tea.

639
00:27:10,434 --> 00:27:26,513
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's very expensive, how wondred percent?

640
00:27:28,074 --> 00:27:31,834
Speaker 4: All right, so bougie and budget things around Boxing day cells,

641
00:27:31,874 --> 00:27:34,794
Speaker 4: So what would you get that's bougie for these sales

642
00:27:34,834 --> 00:27:35,234
Speaker 4: coming up?

643
00:27:35,234 --> 00:27:38,434
Speaker 3: Tom, Yeah, I would like I said, I would target

644
00:27:38,474 --> 00:27:41,074
Speaker 3: one of my favorite Australian brands. I'm a big fan

645
00:27:41,154 --> 00:27:44,314
Speaker 3: of shopping Australian labels, especially in that sort of mid tier.

646
00:27:44,714 --> 00:27:46,793
Speaker 3: What I would classify as mid tier is what a

647
00:27:46,794 --> 00:27:49,154
Speaker 3: lot of my wardrobe is. And many of those pieces

648
00:27:49,234 --> 00:27:51,874
Speaker 3: I have snapped up on sale, whether it was end

649
00:27:51,874 --> 00:27:55,474
Speaker 3: of season sales or Boxing day sales. So Alime is

650
00:27:55,514 --> 00:27:58,754
Speaker 3: one of my favorite beautiful Australian brands. I love the

651
00:27:58,794 --> 00:28:01,674
Speaker 3: pieces I've bought from there, and they were I'm looking

652
00:28:01,674 --> 00:28:03,594
Speaker 3: at my wardrobe in my head, they were all bought

653
00:28:03,634 --> 00:28:06,593
Speaker 3: on the sales and buy any of them price. I

654
00:28:06,634 --> 00:28:09,033
Speaker 3: wear them throughout the year to lots of different occasions.

655
00:28:09,034 --> 00:28:11,354
Speaker 3: For example, I have an embroidered shirt dress that I

656
00:28:11,394 --> 00:28:14,354
Speaker 3: wore last year on Christmas Day beautiful, so I feel

657
00:28:14,354 --> 00:28:17,274
Speaker 3: the quality is very much worth the price there. However,

658
00:28:17,434 --> 00:28:19,593
Speaker 3: so I would be prepared to pay full price for Alime,

659
00:28:19,674 --> 00:28:21,793
Speaker 3: I think it's worth it, but if I'm looking at

660
00:28:21,794 --> 00:28:24,874
Speaker 3: it through a sale lens. There are a lot of

661
00:28:24,914 --> 00:28:27,114
Speaker 3: things I want from this brand, but one of my

662
00:28:27,154 --> 00:28:31,234
Speaker 3: favorite pieces at the moment is called the Pam Mini Dress. Okay,

663
00:28:31,594 --> 00:28:34,754
Speaker 3: it's a blue floral smock dress with a cinched waist.

664
00:28:34,834 --> 00:28:37,514
Speaker 3: It's got a high neck and these voluminous sleep.

665
00:28:37,354 --> 00:28:39,434
Speaker 1: I'm looking at that now, that's a gorgeous press. It

666
00:28:39,514 --> 00:28:40,154
Speaker 1: is so beautiful.

667
00:28:40,154 --> 00:28:43,074
Speaker 3: It's this ditzy blue floral print, which is like a

668
00:28:43,074 --> 00:28:45,114
Speaker 3: little bit out of my wheelhouse in terms of I'm

669
00:28:45,154 --> 00:28:47,154
Speaker 3: not a big floral person, but I do love like

670
00:28:47,194 --> 00:28:52,714
Speaker 3: a liberty inspired ditzy print, and it's kind of seventies vibes,

671
00:28:52,754 --> 00:28:55,474
Speaker 3: but the shape is very chic. It's four hundred and

672
00:28:55,514 --> 00:28:58,194
Speaker 3: twenty dollars, so I'm hoping that that might be reduced

673
00:28:58,234 --> 00:29:00,794
Speaker 3: to somewhere in the two to three hundred dollar Man.

674
00:29:00,754 --> 00:29:03,234
Speaker 1: I can't wait to see you wearing that next year.

675
00:29:04,234 --> 00:29:06,434
Speaker 3: I really am going to buy this if it goes

676
00:29:06,434 --> 00:29:06,994
Speaker 3: on sale.

677
00:29:07,194 --> 00:29:08,634
Speaker 1: If it goes on sale, so that's going to be

678
00:29:08,674 --> 00:29:10,234
Speaker 1: your deal breaker, I think.

679
00:29:10,314 --> 00:29:12,434
Speaker 3: So. I don't know if I like four hundred is

680
00:29:12,474 --> 00:29:13,794
Speaker 3: a bit of a threshold for me.

681
00:29:14,594 --> 00:29:15,674
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, for.

682
00:29:15,754 --> 00:29:18,554
Speaker 4: A dress as well, like yes, and such a statement

683
00:29:18,634 --> 00:29:20,594
Speaker 4: dress as well, like can you wear that?

684
00:29:20,754 --> 00:29:20,914
Speaker 1: Yeah?

685
00:29:20,954 --> 00:29:22,634
Speaker 3: I don't know. I do tend to wear Like if

686
00:29:22,674 --> 00:29:24,994
Speaker 3: I have dresses like that in my wardrobe that I've

687
00:29:25,034 --> 00:29:27,554
Speaker 3: spent the money on, I'll get the wear out of them.

688
00:29:27,274 --> 00:29:29,074
Speaker 1: For sure. What about you?

689
00:29:29,114 --> 00:29:31,034
Speaker 3: What's your bougie like that you'd ee off? In the

690
00:29:31,074 --> 00:29:31,794
Speaker 3: sales this year?

691
00:29:32,114 --> 00:29:35,674
Speaker 4: It's those wishless brands that I really want to dip

692
00:29:35,714 --> 00:29:38,834
Speaker 4: my toe into that I usually would never buy or

693
00:29:38,874 --> 00:29:41,234
Speaker 4: don't own any of. And at the moment, that brand

694
00:29:41,274 --> 00:29:44,194
Speaker 4: is Victoria Beckham. Have you watched the documentary.

695
00:29:43,714 --> 00:29:44,874
Speaker 1: That I did?

696
00:29:44,914 --> 00:29:46,314
Speaker 3: It was so yeah, I loved it.

697
00:29:46,474 --> 00:29:48,634
Speaker 4: Yeah, and I guess I've just got this new found

698
00:29:48,674 --> 00:29:51,514
Speaker 4: love and appreciation for not just her but her fashion

699
00:29:51,594 --> 00:29:54,714
Speaker 4: brand because the whole docco really does focus on her line,

700
00:29:54,914 --> 00:29:57,794
Speaker 4: and like the lead up to showing it Paris Fashion Week,

701
00:29:57,834 --> 00:30:01,074
Speaker 4: and it made me deep dive her brand and her collections.

702
00:30:01,074 --> 00:30:04,434
Speaker 4: And there's a really beautiful double breasted wool and cashmere

703
00:30:04,474 --> 00:30:07,074
Speaker 4: blend coat and it comes in a really nice camel

704
00:30:07,234 --> 00:30:11,754
Speaker 4: or black. It is three thousand dollars it is, and

705
00:30:11,794 --> 00:30:13,674
Speaker 4: that's something I would never spend that.

706
00:30:13,834 --> 00:30:15,954
Speaker 1: I just I can't nor.

707
00:30:15,954 --> 00:30:19,634
Speaker 4: Have I It's a weird mindset, isn't it. Like I

708
00:30:19,634 --> 00:30:22,114
Speaker 4: think you'd spend that or you'd save to buy, say

709
00:30:22,114 --> 00:30:25,314
Speaker 4: a bag and design a bag at that past point.

710
00:30:25,594 --> 00:30:27,634
Speaker 1: But I don't know why I can't commit.

711
00:30:27,434 --> 00:30:32,074
Speaker 4: To a wool cash mere blend jacket that I'd have forever,

712
00:30:32,114 --> 00:30:33,514
Speaker 4: i'd pass down to my children.

713
00:30:33,594 --> 00:30:35,634
Speaker 1: Why can't I commit to that instead of the bag?

714
00:30:35,674 --> 00:30:37,834
Speaker 3: Well this could be your year, babe. But if you

715
00:30:37,834 --> 00:30:41,314
Speaker 3: could get a little cheeky discount of yeah, this is beautiful,

716
00:30:41,314 --> 00:30:42,834
Speaker 3: I can see why you're eyeing this off.

717
00:30:42,874 --> 00:30:45,754
Speaker 4: And I just don't know what color the camel or black,

718
00:30:46,314 --> 00:30:48,434
Speaker 4: And maybe I don't know what price that would need

719
00:30:48,474 --> 00:30:49,474
Speaker 4: to be to commit.

720
00:30:50,554 --> 00:30:53,074
Speaker 3: It's the threshold. I guess you'll know in a few weeks.

721
00:30:53,154 --> 00:30:56,194
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, cool, And what's your budget?

722
00:30:56,434 --> 00:31:00,274
Speaker 3: Yeah, So I always love shopping at Style Runner. I

723
00:31:00,274 --> 00:31:04,354
Speaker 3: think they just do an elite range of fashion and sportswear,

724
00:31:04,474 --> 00:31:08,674
Speaker 3: and particularly the sneaker edit is so on point. Usually

725
00:31:08,714 --> 00:31:12,874
Speaker 3: they do have discounted sneakers anyway, but I'm pretty excited

726
00:31:12,874 --> 00:31:14,874
Speaker 3: for Boxing days. I think they're gonna have some good

727
00:31:14,914 --> 00:31:19,914
Speaker 3: markdowns on a range of brands. You're Added Ass, New Balance, Puma, etc.

728
00:31:20,674 --> 00:31:22,954
Speaker 3: So yeah, I'll be I'll be heading straight there to

729
00:31:22,994 --> 00:31:25,514
Speaker 3: start up on some new sneakers, getting a new color

730
00:31:25,554 --> 00:31:27,314
Speaker 3: way of maybe a sneaker that you've got that you

731
00:31:27,434 --> 00:31:31,194
Speaker 3: lost and they're comfortable you wear a lot and yeah,

732
00:31:31,194 --> 00:31:32,794
Speaker 3: and this is sort of like you might be able

733
00:31:32,834 --> 00:31:34,754
Speaker 3: to get a sneaker in like they're just under one

734
00:31:34,834 --> 00:31:38,394
Speaker 3: hundred range, which or you know, around the one hundred

735
00:31:38,434 --> 00:31:40,554
Speaker 3: dollar mark for an added as sneaker, which is really

736
00:31:40,914 --> 00:31:42,434
Speaker 3: you know, speaking to me.

737
00:31:42,554 --> 00:31:44,354
Speaker 1: Yeah, what's your budget going to do that as well?

738
00:31:44,994 --> 00:31:45,714
Speaker 1: My budget?

739
00:31:46,114 --> 00:31:48,114
Speaker 4: So, like I sort of spoke at the top of

740
00:31:48,154 --> 00:31:50,194
Speaker 4: the pot, how I like to get the basics as well.

741
00:31:50,434 --> 00:31:52,514
Speaker 4: So in the boxing day sales, get all my underwear,

742
00:31:52,554 --> 00:31:56,794
Speaker 4: the socks, whatnot. I also get my basic white tees.

743
00:31:57,234 --> 00:32:00,274
Speaker 4: So just like having fresh teas, they don't usually last

744
00:32:00,314 --> 00:32:02,754
Speaker 4: the whole year, which when you think I'm wearing them

745
00:32:03,274 --> 00:32:06,274
Speaker 4: almost every day though, I love them really, Chris, But

746
00:32:06,394 --> 00:32:09,234
Speaker 4: I get my white tees from Uniclo. There are one

747
00:32:09,314 --> 00:32:12,034
Speaker 4: hundred percent cotton. It's the one hundred percent cotton crew

748
00:32:12,074 --> 00:32:13,954
Speaker 4: neck T shirt. It's the men's one.

749
00:32:14,074 --> 00:32:16,114
Speaker 3: Do you know Lee Campbell's vouch for these as well.

750
00:32:16,154 --> 00:32:18,074
Speaker 3: I'm not surprised you guys like the same team.

751
00:32:18,234 --> 00:32:20,794
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's just the cut of it and the being

752
00:32:20,834 --> 00:32:22,474
Speaker 1: the men's it's slightly oversized.

753
00:32:22,874 --> 00:32:25,474
Speaker 4: It's just there's such a great staple and it's just

754
00:32:25,514 --> 00:32:26,754
Speaker 4: a nice, crisp white.

755
00:32:26,874 --> 00:32:29,674
Speaker 1: So I usually get maybe five to six of those. Right.

756
00:32:29,754 --> 00:32:31,274
Speaker 3: Well, now I've heard it from you and Lee, now

757
00:32:31,274 --> 00:32:32,474
Speaker 3: I definitely have to get one.

758
